Sure, but I miss when the internet was an escape, now its kinda of dead for me, I spend more time offline because of the 24/7 outrage, like yeah im upset too, but it just gets repetitive, im not built to be stressed out constantly, im getting blood pressure issues, had to dlt x because the algoirthim shifted towards controversy hard, and have to use lemmy less since its just depressing/exciting in a bad way news all the time.
Really wish lemmy was an exception, considering how small it is and how powerless the userbase is, yet its just another source of stress in my life lately

Most are currently active (except for the ones with a * which were less active last I checked) Sometimes politics, tech or memes sneak in but they’re not the focus.

MEMES, SOCIAL MEDIA REPOSTS, AND HUMOR
Most of these are currently active. (except for the ones with a * which were less active last I checked). Sometimes these include politics but that’s not the sole focus.
Maybe Lemmy could have support for categorising/tagging communities and/or posts, such that one could follow, block, or maybe filter them. I.e. tag a community “Politics”, and users could simply express a lack of interest on the aforementioned category, and see no further from said community and others alike
no lawmakers are here, anyone here is already voting on the same side as you, yeah get your thoughts out but Idk what sort of political change yall think yall make on this platform specifically, its an echo chamber of outrage
We’re a subculture, which is a socially isolating, defensive posture to take. An offensive posture would be, I guess, to form a counterculture–and go out there to where the people are, so you can reproduce your culture in differently minded people.
But who wants to do that when we’ve got this cozy wozy place.

Stuck with reddit as the only place you can talk about not politics primarily, I wouldnt mind it if it wasn’t 75% of my feed

Not a bad point…
